"Strange as it seems, the basic shape of a fern can be captured in a 
simple stick drawing.  To make a fern of curving, intricate 
complexity, all that is required is the simple shape, and a few basic 
rules.  The only rules are that the stick shape is free to repeat 
itself at many different levels of scale, that it is placed in an 
upright direction, and that it connects with what is already on the 
page.

 From this combination of a few simple rules and high levels of 
autonomy - of order and chaos working in tandem - emerges the 
beautiful complexity of a fern."

- Margaret J. Wheatley (via praystation2)

"Come the sun 
See it run 
Across the sky 
Cosmic eye 
Is for you 
And no one else...
            
Tree wizard Puretongue 
The digger of holes 
The Swan King 
The Elf Lord 
The Eater of Souls 
Lithon the Black
The rider of stars 
Tyrannosaurus Rex 
The Eater of Cars"

"'No, no, let us play, for it is yet day,
   And we cannot go to sleep;
Besides, in the sky the little birds fly,
   And the hills are all covered with sheep.'
'Well, well, go and play till the light fades away,
   And then go home to bed.'
The little ones leaped, and shouted, and laughed,
   And all the hills echoed."

- william blake

"Thus it is agreed by the great sages that the phoenix, when she 
approaches her five-hundredth year, dies and then is born again; in 
her lifetime she feeds neither on herbs nor grain, but only on tears 
of frankincense and of balsam, and nard and myrrh are her last 
winding-sheet.  And as one that falls, not knowing how, by force of a 
devil dragging him to the ground or by some vital obstruction that 
blinds a man, and when he rises stares about him all bewildered with 
the great anguish he has suffered, and sighs as he looks; such was 
the sinner when he rose.  Ah, the power of God, how stern it is, 
pouring forth such strokes for vengeance!"

"Several of nature's people
I know, and they know me;
I feel for them a transport
Of cordiality;

But never met this fellow,
Attended or alone,
Without a tighter breathing,
And zero at the bone."

- emily dickinson

"Godard wrote: 'There are no more simple images... The whole world is 
too much for an image.  You need several of them, a chain of 
images..."  Accordingly, Godard always uses multiple images, images 
cross-dissolved together, coming together and separating.  The 
electronic mixing that replaces both temporal montage and montage 
within the shot becomes for Godard an appropriate technique to 
visualize this 'vague and complicated system that the whole world is 
continually entering and watching.'"
